Broadly speaking you still are. Theists and deists both share the belief that at least one deity exists. The rest is arbitrary nonsense from my position.


Quote:I would take it as a test.
Why would you once believe any immoral command is a test? And why would god put you to the test in the first instance? What could he possibly hope to gain from it, other than putting you through hell for his own amusement that is?


Quote:There would be the "inner messenger" telling me not do it, which is God's command, and then "words", but I think the inner messenger is the light of God and speaks of God's will in more binding way..so it has more authority then "words".
What does 'inner messenger' and 'light of god' even mean? Something or someone inside you? What? Answers in English please.
